First time co2 user - regulator help

I maybe wrong but......It doesn't look like the correct reg to me. If you want one to fit a FE you will need a Din fitting like this one..

http://www.aquaessentials.co.uk/tmc-v2- ... -3702.html

You can get converters from one fitting to another but you need a reg for vapour withdrawl, not liquid.

Maybe someone who knows more than me can just confirm.
 
good job i didnt shell out on it then! i was going to buy the tmc originally buts its been out of stock at AE for a while, thanks for the help
 
Hi whinnie

The ebay one would be perfect ive just looked at it and its features and its spot on actually looks very nice regulator and value for money at that price

If you not ordered one yet that will do the job no problem

just confirm for me itll definately fit a FE? as the other poster seems to disagree although it looks to me like it will and it says its for aquarium use
 
Whinnie, I did say I may be wrong. I've had a bit more of a look and it does say that this fitting is designed for the UK market - so yes I would think sussex_cichlids is correct. If in doubt why not double check with the seller.

Hi Whinnie
It will fit a FE it comes with a STD DIN 477 fitting, i have the same reg and for the money its pretty good. Took a while to arrive (3-4 weeks) comes with a spare o ring and is fitted with a 2 pin plug but the seller also included a 3 pin adaptor . I got mine from the same seller if memory serves me right.

Stu.
 
thatll do me, ordered it thanks, out of interest where do you purchase your fes?

Ebay.
Anything between £3 on a good day :D to £15 on a bad day :( . for a 2Kg.
I always try and find someone selling local so I can go and pick them up, as most of them charge about £10 for postage due to the weight.
There are some crazy prices for the new ones (>£100 for 2kg :wideyed: ), but I've always used second hand ones and disposed of them when they hit the 10 year mark as no one will refill them without a pressure test, which some firms charge £15 for anyway.
Looks like rebus beat me to it :crazy:
